Has anyone happened to see
this show? I've come in at the tail end of it twice, so don't really have a full grasp for it, but what I did see was kind of.....yikes. Basically, the show chronicles the lives of "superfans" of particular areas. You can read a few details at the above link about what has been covered (no Star Wars...yet...but I'm sure it is coming). One that I happened to see was a woman "obsessed" with Lord of the Rings. She of course had all the merchandise, but the "odd" thing was her relationship with life size cardboard cut outs of the characters. They had footage of her playing "duck duck goose" in the front yard with them, and also taking Smeagol and Gollum out to eat with her family (which she apparently does quite often). She then proceeds to do their voices, arguing whether they want chicken or fish (if i remember right) to eat, when the server asks for their orders. I also saw part of a guy "obsessed" with Pac-Man, which was just....a little.....off. Not judging though, to each their own. Just in case anyone was wondering, both people I saw were married (and the woman had children). Definitely some odd behavior in some people's opinions I am sure, and you just know a Star Wars one has to be on the horizon.
